RCPtEQUET EXPECTS DECBMN IN FAVOR OF THE EAST SH)E Attorney for C. of C. Satisfied With Presen tation of Case in Coal Hearing. ATTORNEY ASKS FOR DISMISSAL Claims Issuance of Di rector General's Or der No. 28 Changes Conditions in Case. The Interstate Commerce hearing in the bridge arbitrary case, which has been heid in the Jefferson Hotei in Bt. Louis, was concluded Friday after noon. At that time Examiner Mack !ey announced that ail parties wouid be given untii September 1 to hie briefs with the commission. After the briefs are submitted the examiner will make a report to the commis sion, with his recommendations. Any of the parties so desiring may then file exceptions to the examiner's re port and the case wiii then be set for orai argument before the commission in Washington, it is regarded ES doubtful if any final decision by the commission wiii be announced before the end of the present year. Before adjournment Friday after noon. the defendant carriers and the East Side interests renewed the mo tion made by Attorney R. W.

This or der directed the railroads to issue new tariffs containing a 25 per cent increase in ail freight rates, and the order specifically directed that "all existing differentials be maintained." Attorney Ropiequet, when inter viewed by a reporter Tor The Journal, expressed it as his opinion that the motion to dismiss the case because of this order would he allowed by the commission. He stated that the com mission had ruled in this manner on a recent case where the same issues were involved and he showed a letter he had received from the commission advising that this whole general ques tion would be argued before the com mission July 24th. after which a de cision would be announced to apply to aii cases. It is the contention of the carriers and of the East Si*de that the present case, which was brought against rates in effect before the gov ernment assumed control of the rail roads. should be directed against the present rates iustead of rates previ ous))' in effect. Ropiequet, when asked his opinion as to the iinai outcome of the case, stated: feet absoiutelv confident that the tlnp! decision wiii be in favor of the* East Side. 1 am certain that the commission wiii not order the East Side to pay for coai hauled over the river and delivered in St Ixmis."

Not only the French, but free peoples everywhere, regard the 14th of July as a Liberty day to be celebrated with rejoicing. There were wild scenes in Paris on the 14th of July, 1792. The workers, the taxpayers, the oppressed, had been uneasy, even riotous, for three days, but on the 14th the rebeliious subjects of Louis XV! were to be taught their lesson their imperial master. The troops were com ing who were to put the workers back to work, and to hang crepe on the doors of those who protested too loudly against .His Majesty's orders and the lack of food. On the morning of the 14th the gates of the city were closed, and the national guard was called to patrol the streets. This show of force, of course, only aroused the hungry people, and the mobs went surging up and down the streets, looking for arms. Somebody said there were arms in the Bastille, the ancient prison fortress, considered impregnable, and held by Swiss guards and *4nnon. The mob gathered about the Dastille, shouting and cursing at the soldiers across the wide moats, filled with water. The soldiers didn't mind. The moat couldn't be crossed. Finally the soldiers opened Bre on the mob, and that was the beginning of the end of tyranny in France. The mobs crossed the moat, its thousands of maddened men went rushing through the great prison, which soon was in flames, and the heads of the gwiss guards and their commanders soon were on the ends of the revolutionists' pikes. The French Revolution was on. The French celebrate the fail of the Bastille because that "impreg nable" castle was the symbol of aristocratic power, and with it fell jhe "impregnable" authority of the "high-bom."

James Richey and his wife, Daisy, of 424 North Third street, charged! with being 'habitual users of drugs, were adjudged guiity by Justice Louis E. Wangetm at Belleyillg yesterday and were orderaA w the County Hospital near that city for ten days treatment after which they will be sent to a state hospital in the hope of effecting a permanent cure. Charges were made at the trial that Mrs. Richey had purchased some of the drugs from Henry Eckert, a drug gist of Collinsville aVenue. The woman declared she bought herroin t there both before and after the pas sage of the Harrison Drug Act. She declared she knew of this law because of the difficulties she experienced in getting drugs and of her refusals at other places. Eckert, who had been subpoenaed as a witness at first denied knowing Mrs. Richey and of ever selling her drugs. After a cross-examination however, he admitted knowing the woman, and admitted that he had sold her the narcotics after the pas sage of the Harrison law. At the close of the trial he was permitted to leave without court action being taken against him. Evidence in this case was procured by J. W. Follmer of the Illinois De partment of Education and Registra tion and his assistant, Mrs. Ruth Naumer, of St. Louis. Assistant State's Attorney Hilmar C. Lindauer of Belleville represented the state in prosecuting the case. On July 23. Inspector Follmer de clared yesterday, petitions will be filed in the County Court to have Richey and his wife being sent to state in stitutions "for treatment. Both are willing to submit to this in the effort to break the habit. Dr. E. J. Johnson, of St. Louis, who practiced as a veterinary surgeon at the Stock Yards without a license, was tried by a jury, at his demand, was found guilty and fined $25 and 'costs.

MEXiCAN STARTLES POUCE BY TELUNG OF GERMAN AGENTS Matter Handled by De partment of Justice Of&cials Ends in Or ders to Quit City. SPY PROVED TO BE LABOR AGENT Both Worked at Local Plant Implicated "Felipe" as Being Spe cial Agent of Kaiser. Jose Juares Orozco, of Cuidad, Juarez, Mexico, who startied the po lice of East St. Louis with a story or the workings here of an agent of Germany, left the city yesterday at the decided request of authorities, when a carefui and thorough, investi gation had proven the untruth of all ihis statements Threatened with ar rest if found within haif an hour, Orozco departed, with none to wish ;him goodbye. Orozco's story was toid yesterday morning and he was heid at Centra! Poiice Headquarters while an inves tigation was conducted by an agent of the Department of Justice. The aiieged German spy, it was declared later, proved to be nothing more harmful than the representative of a tabor employment agency. Orozco's motive cqpid not be ascertained. He came to East St. Louis less !than two weeks ago and readily se cured employment in a local manufac turing plant. His work, however, was not satisfactory, officials of the com pany declare, and Friday he was dis charged. Several days ago, OTOzco told the authorities in his role as "informant," j another Mexican appeared at the piant and asked for work. He was Bhorwu through the shops and paid particular 'attention to the machines and to the ;gas pipes. He remained there about three hours and then left. Later he met this man. whom he knows only as "Felipe" he said, and accompanied him to St. Louis, where they visited severai saioons, buying drinks in each place. There, in confi dence, Feiipe toid him he was an agent of the German Government and that he was in this district to get news and information for transmission to Berlin. Headquarters for the agents. Orozco said Felipe, had told him, were main tained at Monterey, Mexico, and ali communications were sent there. Felipe would meet other agents in St. Louis, he said, and turn his letters over to them. The envelopes never were addressed, he declared, and were only numbered. The messages later were sent to Monterey by private wire, he said, as the malls never were used. Felipe also received his pay in St. Louis, Orozco declared. Returning to East St. Louis. Orozco said he reported the matter to ahthor ities at once. He added that Felipe had offered him a place as an agent of Germany if he would go to Mon terey and be sworn in. He did not give a definite answer, he said, hoping to keep the other man guessing untii he had had time to notify officials. From officials at the piant where Orozco was employed it was 1 earned by the Department of Justice agent, that Felipe, instead of being a dan gerous alien enemy spy, was merely a labor agent. He had been given work at the piant but was discharged with in an hour when information was re ceived of his true vocation. Orozco, according to papers he car ries with him, has Sled his declara tion for naturalization in the United States. He came to this country from Parral. Chihuahua. Mexico, in 1915. A short time after that he enlisted in ihe United States Army and iater wa* honorably discharged A notice, bearing the date of June 2. 1918. shows that he attempted to enlist in the United States Army at Jefferson Barracks, but was rejected because of physical disability.

GIRL SENTENCED TO STATE HOME FOR !NCEND!AR!SM Anna Kosioski, 9, Vio lated Paroles and Tir ed OAcers Who Grant ed Leniency. EXCITEMENT WAS NECESSARY Burned Washington Park School and Caus ed Several Neighbor hood Fires. Anna Kosloskl, a 9-year-old enigma, who through motives of revenge and excitement burned several buildings and robbed several other homes In Washington Park, was adjudged a de linquent in the County Court at Belle ville yesterday. She will be sent to the State School for Girls at Geneva, under orders of Judge J. B. Messick. Anna for months has been a puzzle and a problem for officials of St. Clair county, and every effort was made to persuade her to change her methods, as none cared to sponsor a petition to have her taken away from home and sent to a state institution. She has been paroled several times, but in each case has violated its pro^ i visions. In the belief that she was mentally afflicted, an inquiry was ordered to be heid in the County Court, to which a number of prominent physicians were summoned. Her answers were flawless and she was given a rating of 100 per cent, a pro cedure rare in cases of children of her age, medical men declare. Little Anna was first brought to the attention of the authorities several months ago, when a portable school building in Washington Park was burned to the ground. An investiga tion by James K. Ewing, superintend ent of the St. Clair County Humane Society, fastened the blame on the girl and she was taken into custody, held at Central Police Headquarters for several hours and then taken to Beiievilie for a hearing. On her prom ise never to repeat the offense she was released. Within a few weeks the home of Mrs. Madge Dodson, in Washington Park, was mysteriously destroyed by fire, and Deputy State Fire Marshal I James H. Richards was detailed to I make an Investigation. The loss on the building was $2,000. Suspicion was directed to tittle Anna and she was again taken into custody. On June 13, however, she was paroled to Mrs. Jane Lavt, and was permitted by her to remain at home, with the understanding that reports were to be made on her conduct at stated inter vals. The night of July 1 a Cre mysteri ously started In the home of Mike Rakey, but was discovered and ex tinguished with only a small loss. Marshal Richards was toid the giri had had a "fuss" with Rakey and the investigation which followed disclosed the fact that Anna also was re sponsible for this blaze, officials as sert. On Jnly 4 the home of a Mrs. Mosely in Washington Park was en tered during her absence and two watches, besides a number of other household articles, were stolen. Some of the property later was found In Anna's possession. This discovery was followed by a confession from her that she had robbed the home. At her home Anna always was de mure and contained, and her parents, Peter and Mary Kosioski, were at first unable to believe that she had been guilty of the things with which she was charged by officials. She had had some trouble with people In the I neighborhood, they admitted knowing, but declared It was the fault entirely of the older people. Because of this, a suggestion was made that they move away from Washington Park to give the. girl a new environment, but this they declined to do. She Is being held In custody at Belleville and will be taken to Geneva within a few days. The Weather 2 Official fora cast for East St. Loui* and Vicinity: Partly ctoudy. Washington.

ST. LOUIS Two Ne w Buildings With Improvements to Others Included in Ex pansion Survey. REV. BLANCHPIED DID SURVEY WORK Prominent Philadelphia Minister Detailed to Obtain Data Covering Local Needs. Following an exhaustive, expert' survey, the Methodist Episcopal. Church has decided definitely on plans for the investment of approximately $200,000 in East St. Louis in extraor dinary church extension. Although the plans have not yet been given out in detail, it is learned from an au thentic source that the costly im provements will embrace the construc tion of two new churches, the comple tion of two which are partly built, and the development of the Slavonic Mission. The official investigators have recommended an appropriation of $15,000 for the completion of the pres ent church at 29th and State streets. For the building of a new church in the Alta Sita district they have recommended an appropriation of $40,000, and they have suggested the application of $20,000 toward the re modeling and improvement of the church at 10th street and Bond ave nue. They advised the allotment of a special fund for the maintenance of the Slavonic Mission at Ninth street and Winstanley avenue. The money will be derived from the $80,000,000 centenary fund which is being raised by the Home and Foreign Mission Board. The immense fund will, it is proposed, be divided equal ly between foreign and domestic church improvements and extensions. The Rev. Dr. J. Blanchpied of Phila delphia, was assigned by this board to make a complete survey of the situ ation in East St. Louis, and he visited the city several months ago and fin ished his investigation very quietly. Dr. Blanchpied was much impress ed with the rapid growth of East St. Louis, and his report was based on both present needs and immediate re quirements of the future by the in crease of population. The Rev. Dr. C. Burns, of Philadel phia, president of the Home and For eign Mission Board, spent several days in East St. Louis this week, personally studying the suggestions submitted by Dr. Blanchpied. He discussed the situation with a com mittee which included Rev. Dr. C. C. Hall, pastor of the First M. E. Church; Rev. Dr. C. H. Whitlock, of Lebanon, 111., and Robert Harding of East St. Louis. The party toured East St. Louis and carefully looked Into Dr. Blanch pied's recommendation. At the close of the investigation, Dr. Burns de clared that he would personally ap prove the report and recommenda tions, and, as he is president of the board it is a virtual certainty that the improvements, to cost approximately $200,000, will be made in East St. Louis.

What is believed to be a ciue to at ieast ome of the gangs which has been operating in the ioca! raiiroad yards is seen by the poiice in a report made yesterday to Chief John M Suiiivan by "Biiiy," watchman for the Vandaiia itaiiroad at the St Ciair avenue cross lag.

C., July 13.— Durazzo, one of the two Austro German submarine bases on the Adriatic Sea, is endangered with the fa!! of Herat, according to Ita!ian Military authorities here. The retreating Austrians al ready have established defen sive !ines not far south of the Skhumbi River. If these lines are broken and the Italians cross the Skhumbi, they will be within striking distance of Du razzo. It is pointed out that El basan, the key to Durazzo, is only 25 miles north of Berat'and connected with Berat by excel lent natural lines of communi cation. Elbasan also is threatened by the French who are advancing northward along the Devoli River. It is believed that the Germans will rush reinforce ments to Albania if they believe Durazzo in danger.^ An advance upon Durazzo would drive the Austrian Reet into the Adriatic for a battle with the Italian, French, British and America-* forces. Cables from Rome reports all Italy enthusiastic over tl fail of Berat. The Italian s*t preme command holds that vie tory one of great strategic im^ portance, because it removed any possible danger of an Aus trian counter attack on Velona.

This has been tried now and found to be extreme!)- detriment at to the work of the seniors. A great deat of gauze work has to be re made, and the chitdren interfere seriousty with the genera! work of the shop. Therefore, atthough we deepty ap preciate the spirit and work of the chitdren, we wttt have to request, upon receipt of this tetter that no senior work shop admit chitdren under 16 years of age to their rooms during working hours. Very cordially yours, MRS. FRAXK V. HAMMER. Chairman, St. Louis Chapter American Red Cross. Master Lawrence Frank Idoux de cided he wouid sacrifice his donkey for the Red Cross, so he sold tickets at 25 cents each, and realized $25 from his sale, and this was his pieas ure to assist in the war work. Mr Chas. idoux and I)r. Hawkins donated !25. These two gentiemen gave a "ham party" in the,bam of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Idoux. at Cahokia. Mrs. Chas. idoux gave the check in on Thursday for $50.

Mrs. Louis Baumeister of 469 Co lumbia place, who sews with the Bap tist iadies, sent in a donation of $1.00, as she was unrbie to take part in the sewing this week. All persons wishing to take up mat ters pertaining to the Home-Service work, will call at the Red Cross Sew ing Room on Monday between the hours of 10 a. m. and 1 p. m. Do not call and expect service from the Red Cross, unless you have someone in service, either soldier or sailor. St. Patrick's School donated an Afghan, large size, and exquisitely made. The number of Volunteers at the Surgical Dressing rooms for the past month was 1711. The number of pieces made, ready to ship was 26,638. AH persons should allow some time to the Surgical Dressing work. We are indeed proud of the record of our ladies who have really mastered the knitting machine—for sock mak ing. Mias Claudia Sincock made 103 tops on Thursday in five hours. She has often made 11 pairs of socks in one day. Miss Agnes Bristow made 12 pairs on Thursday. Miss Virgin, 14 pairs and Mrs. Earl Stemm, 1% pairs on Thursday. We feel there are other persons who are doing but little, if any. Red Cross Work, who could apply themselves as these iadies hate, j ana' many others are doing. 100,009 pairs of socks are to be made by the southwestern division—we are a part of said division. If you cannot knit on the machines, you can surety as sist in making sweaters, for this di vision must make and hand in with the socks by Sept. 1st, 140,000 sweat ers. The canfeen fund recently started, to supply the needs of the boys com ing through our city will be discon tinued, as the canteen supplies are met through the Red Cross Drive fund. We would ask the people of East St. Louis who have been so liberal in ev6ry way, to contribute to funds ana assist in every way possible to make life worth while for our boys both aL home and "over there," may rest as sured that the Red Cross will permit at no time our boys to be in want. If such is in their power to meet the need, and we feel that there is no question but that all needs may be met through the great over-subscribeu War Fund. The question of canteen cabins to be placed in East St. Louis has been uppermost in the minds or many persons for the past four weeks, but while we have many quiet sincere workers who do much and say little. 1 on the other hand, East St. Louis must not be left out wh?n it comes u. counting our cyclone workers. We mean by this that there are persons who are all enthusiasm today and much excited* over little things, when the sun goes down their enthusiasm dies. But East St. Louis as other cities, has so many substantial, sin cere workers that they never stop until all things are completed as should he. So shall be our reward in the canteen service. We do not feel that we should supply a canteen cabin at the great expense at which it woulo be until every investigation has been made, as to whether or not said can-; teen will really he needed in our ctty. At any rate, when trains are en route and our boys are entrained in our city, they will be cared for by the Ameri can Red Cross. We would deem it a favor if anyone knowing of a train en route that will stop within the city; limits, phone Olive 7300 and ask for Mr. L. C. Murdock or his assistant and state your business. This co-operation will mean service to our boys and business qualification to the Red Cross, providing canteen service be required. Mrs. Virgin made 15 pairs of socks on Friday; Mrs. Stem made 120— wonderful work for our knitting ma chines. NARROW ESCAPE FOR YOUNG LADY Miss Marion May McMackin and!

Copies of this conventions have been forwarded to state headquarters for distribution. "It should be especially borne in mind that this Is not a draft by Great Britain on British subjects and Canadians in the United States. These conventions mereiy provide that British citizens and Canadians in the United States shall become subject to military service and entitled to ex emption and discharge therefrom under the laws of the United States, unless within the prescribed time they voluntarily enlist in the British forces or return to Great Britain or Canada lor military service.

H. Harter, professor of the college of law at the University of Illinois; former Con gressman James M. Graham, of Spring held; John H. Whlgmore, dean of the Northwestern University Law school, Colonel Nathan William McChesney, judge advocate general in the Illinois national guard, and Professor Ernest Freund, head of the law department 0! the University of Chicago. Ex-Congressman James M. Graham has been a delegate to this meeting for the past two years. i A total of 104 indictments returned Friday by the federal grand jury, making 142 indictments since the grand Jury was called, is believed to be the largest number of indictments ever returned by a single grand jury in the history of the court. The big majority of Indictments are for violations of espionage act and violation of the liquor law, forty in dictments being for the former and Hfiy-seven for the latter. The grand Jury was not discharged by Judge Ferdinand Geiger of Mil waukee, who is acting judge of the court, but who recessed subject to recall for action before the next term of court if needed. -A large number of those indicted were ready to plead guilty but Judge Geiger could not remain In the city so no cases were considered.

Senators and representatives in con gress will be asked by the Combined Retailers' association of Illinois to use their Influence to prevent the adop tion of anti-Christmas gift rulings. The association agreed unaniniousiy on this plan at their meeting held last evening in the S. C. A. rooms at the city hail. The plan to abandon all Christmas giving except the exchange of post cards and letters, which has been urged upon retailers by the Council of National Defense, does not meet with their approval. The retailers were! asked to spread the propaganda, and Instead will seek congressional influ ence to quash the plan which they claim will be ruinous to dealers In sensible Christmas gifts.

Supported by.dainty Louise Huff, Jack Pickford, the popular screen star, will be seen in his new Paramount photoplay, "Sandy," which is to be presented at the Majestic Theatre today, Sunday. The production is said to be one of the best in which young Pickford ever has appeared and Manager Redmon is arranging to make this an epochal event at his house. Account of the fact that this is Jack Pickford's last picture until after the war. Jack, although born in Canada, has made the States his home since a small boy. Says he is a real American and he proved it re cently by joinihg Uncle Sam's Navy Forces. Jack has had many Hghts in the play; but in fact many of them were real fights, and how he is gomg to have a regular one with the Huns.

Alice Brady will be seen in her latest Select Picture, "The Whirlpool" at the Majestic Theatre on Monday, a photodrama which bids fair to add its name to this versatile young star's tist of record-breaking productions. This story, a popular romance ot metropolitan life, which comes from the same pen as the screen version of many well-known pfbductions, includ ing the "Yellow Ticket," tells of the adventures of a young girl, reared by a gambler of the old-heart-of-gold school who is so often found flourish ing in the Tenderloin of New York City. New Liberty Theater "The Fly God." A rather unique idea is embodied in Triangle's latest Roy Stewart west ern picture, "The F!y God," to be run here today. Bob Alters, befriended by Roy Stewart, is on trial for his life, charged with murder. The jury is hand-picked by the sheriff, who is a brother of the slain man. Eleven of the jurymen are for bringing in a ver dict of guilty. The twelfth man, a hen-pecked husband, finds an oppor tunity, for the first time In years, to shine in an argument. He holds out for acquittal. The eleven bring pres sure to bear upon him. Finally a fly is noticed buzzing about the room. "We'll leave it to the Hy," says hen pecked Cummings.

(By United Press.) London. June 10—(By Mail)—"You Like Long Drink—So Does Your Horse." In the dusty ruins of a iittie French village. sbsoiutely deserted except for occasional patrols end transport wagons, this sign reminds the British Tommy that the watering-trough is there for his horse. The trough has been hit and repaired several times and the town is often touched up by German gunners, yet that sign has re mained through aii the strafing with its good fellow appeal for a square deal for the transport animais. "Water bon; Gas no bon." says the next sign on the crust of the oid cafe. "Plenty Mustardgas and Phot gene. Aiiet toot sweet. Understand?" Defective in both French and Eng lish so everybody admits, but that notice contains just enough of each to notify Tommy and Poilu that the water is good to drink although the ruin is under gas and not a safe piace in which to linger. "Beware of Gas Through this Vil lage!" says the official warning the British troops posted at each end of town. And "Fresh Supply Daily at Regular Hours," says some Tommy's unofficial postscript on the Bante notice-board. "Gas man Just Gone for a Fresh Supply of Eggs." Up and down the line the irrepres sible trench-humorists of the army may be known by their handiwork. "Live and Let Live." appeals a notice board at each end of a howitzer battery position. "This Valley For bidden to 18-pounders and Balloon shooters." When the major saw It, the appeal pulled a laugh out of him and it ex pressed his own sentiments so exactly that he permitted it to remain. For, as an officer of the battery explained, a few weeks ago a neighboring 18 pounder battery got under a boche air t plane and was completely smashed by the enemy's artillery, while the how itzers themselves narrowly escaped ob servation from the same plane. "Our one object in life is to escape attracting attention," said the officer, "and wc object to catching 'spares' intended for other batteries. If 18 pounders don't mind committing sui cide, the how's' do. Our notice also goes for sixty-pounders, for if there is one thing Fritzle hates more than an other it is the sixty-pounder; and he lays himself out to spot them. They have a shocking flash which illumin ates the whole countryside, and they are very uncomfortable neighbors." A howitzer can snuggle up close under a bank, thereby getting a max imum of cover. In this place the Ger mans thought they had cleared out all the guns, but the neighborhood was again "suspected" when the howitzers resumed their Bhooting. "Imagine our joy when a sixty pounder officer came around a few days later," said the artilleryman, "and wanted to put two of his guns Ught behind us in order to shoot bal loons. Our major took him by the arm and led him over to see what had happened to the 18-pounders. He tried pathos, too, saying were were a poor orphan howitzer crowd." But getting back to the signs, there's another at a cross-roads ruined village. It says "Beware the 5.9's. Don't stop to talk here. Boche Zero Lfhe." It isn't sarcasm, either, for the Boche shell holes conhrm what the j sign tells you.

We are fighting for what up beiieve and wish to be the rights of mankind and for the future peace and security of the worid. —Woodrow Wii3on. EAST ST. LOUIS, THE BEAUTIFUL. The citizens of no community can look into the future with liveiier confidence than the people of East St. Louis. They are about to reaiize, to an estimable extent, on inherent advantages, and they are specialty fortunate in that East St. Louis offers the nucleus for fashioning the most attractive industrial center in the world. Among the executives of large corporations it is habitual to look on places like East St. Louis with more or less indifference or contempt. By some such places are regarded as so-called satel lite cities, and by others they are derisively classed back-doors to greater, neighboring centers. By most of them cities like East St. Louis are considered to be merely industrial necessities. But the citizenship of East St. Louis is a citizenship of aspira tion, a citizenship of hope and ideals, and it will not be satisfied to be only the human factor of a de&d industrialism. It is deter mined, in the dawn of the era of advancement, to modernize its aspects of manufacture on the highest fixed standards, and to transform the city as a whole into a mode! of aesthetic develop ment. This city spreads out in a busy valley from the world's largest river to bluffs of rare beauty and charm. The layout is naturally amenable to aesthetic treatment. The nucleus exists for planning and improving the city in its entirety in accordance with artistic system. The improvements so far are such as to be easily adapt able to inexpensive development. Contemporaneous with other fundamental advancement the citizenship is resolved to realize fully on its natural advantages and effect a transformation, which, at this time, can hardly be imagined by any one except an expert. The civic pride and spirit of the people will make this city what they are decided that it shall be, the model in every respect among manufacturing centers. THE REAL QUALITY OF EAST ST. LOUIS. Immediately upon the dedication of the magnificent new St Joseph's Church, which was built through the religious spirit and civic pride of the Reverend Father Thomas S. Bannan, plans are announced by the Methodist Episcopal Church for the investment of approximately $200,000 in East St. Louis- If any additional, visible signs of the character of the community were wanted, be sides those which have been shown heretofore, these religious en terprises would furnish adequate proof of its quality, sincerity and ardor. The handsome edifice which Father Bannan has raised, to the glory of religion and for the upbuilding of the community, at Co lumbia place and Illinois avenue, is a personal honor to him and a tribute to the people of East St. Louis. Architecturally, it would be an adornment to any city, while, from religious and moral standpoints, it stands, in its beauty and majesty, as an outward declaration that the integrity of this city is secure. The Daily ^Journal is happy to take this opportunity to thank Father Bannan. in the name of all conscientious citizens, for his great service to East St. Louis. At the same time, the Daily Journal wishes to congratulate, earnestly, the clergymen and laymen of the Methodist Episcopal Church for the adoption of pretentious plans for the betterment of this city. It would be almost impossible to measure the good results which must accrue from the contemplated developments, and improvements. Washington Park, Lansdowne. Alta Sita and three other sec tions of the city, as the news items which the Daily Journal pub lishes today will show, will benefit directly from the improve ments. And it may be said, truly and accurately, therefore, that the religious extension plans of the Methodist Episcopal denomina tion will have an uplifting effect on the whole city. It is usual, of course, that the abnormal phases of community life should be unduly ennhasized. Crime and vice are such, and their accentuation has the effect of clouding the good and pro gressive features, which are properly normal. With the object of bringing into relief the noble efforts of the citizens, the Daily Journal takes exceptional pride in calling special attention to the activity of the churches. SURPRISING THEMSELVES ONLY. The other day we were reading the Congressional Record. That document has been of extreme interest to East St. 1/ouisans recently, for we have learned things about our own peo ple which none but Congressmen could learn. But as a matter of fact, the Record is fuli of interest. The men. who cany on the debates in Congress are men whose work brings them exceptional opportunities for learning the facts about the Great Wan—and all of us are interested. There is scarcely a day when the Record does not carry some choice bits of informa tion which have not been featured in newspapers and magazines, yet which have a vital bearing on the situation of this country and its military and naval forces. Here is an example: John Sharp Williams was objecting to what he considered Senator McCumbePs acknowledgement of the Germans ss super men.

With the American Army at the Front, June 20—(By Mai!)—It wouid bring joy to the hearts of mothers who have worried because they couid not send packages to "Sonny over there" to see the stores and canteens with the army where Sonny can buy prac ticaiiy anything he wants, and cer tainly anything he needs. What is more, Sonny gets things cheaper at these army stores in far away France than he cou!d if he had access to ali the best stores of New York, Chicago and San Francisco put together. There are three or four agencies iooking after the wants of Sonny. By means of them he can get aii kinds of edibles, be it candy, canned fruit, meats or vegetabies. He can get to bacco at a lower price than he ever got it in America. Stationery, clothes, candies, shoes, everything he can use has been anticipated and brought to the American army zone in enormous quantities. Most important of aii supply services for Sonny Over There is the army commissary department. The army has stores in aii the important towns where soidiers are stationed be hind the lines. Of course this does not reach the boys while they are in the trenches, but when a regiment comes back on rest, it is near enough to have access to the army commis sary store. Everything Needed. Go into any army store with Sonny Over There and you Cnd him buying everything imaginabie. Chocolate, gum drops, and cookies are the most important smaii luxury, and the army seiis a iot of them. Sonny aiso buys a iot of stick candy, with stripes on it, the kind he used to iike to suck when a youngster. He never forgets the habits of the oid aii day sucker days. Huge quantities of canned goods are soid a can or two at a time. Jams, Jeiiies, sliced pineappie, peaches, aprt cots, and marmalade seem to be the stand-bys with Sonny Over There in the way of fruit. Canned meats and vegetables, especialiy Boston beans, are brought over in big quantities, but usuaiiy they And their way to a kitchen. They are hardiy a luxury in Sonny's estimation for he gets all he can eat of them at meals. In the clothing department. Sonny &nd6 parts of uniforms, underclothes, sox, towels, boots, shoes, raincoats, overcoats, caps, puttees, and every other article he can put on hts body. Then the army wisely established a sort of American drug store depart ment. not for medicine, for Sonny gets all of that he needs free, from the hospitals, but to provide razors, shav ing brushes, shaving coap, powder soap, and in fact everything but Ice rream sodas. That's Sonny's one "kick" about the commissary stores; they did not bring Ice cream sodas to the army zone, and sodas were un known to France. Other Canteens. Then there is the Salvation Army, the Y. M. C. A., and the Red Cross canteens, all for Sonny's benedt. The Salvation Army has canteens in all the villages near the front, and special izes In things that Sonny likes to eat. Candy, nuts, pies, cakes, doughnuts, and hot chocolate are things not in cluded in the army diet often. So the Salvation Army girls have them ready for Sonny at the rest canteens, where are chairs, tables, games, and phono graphs. In this way. the Y. M. C. A. huts aim to supply Sonny, especially nith paper, envelopes, pen and Ink, and a place to write letters home. The Y. M. C. A. generally has candy and hot chocolate for Sonny when he drops In. as well as cigarettes and tobacco. The Red Cross posts specialize in giv ing Sonny something hot to eat and dring as he goes through, and supply ing ciothes when his get tom. Sonny, being In the American army, draws good pay. and it goes a long way if he uses It judiciously. He is well provided for, even to his whims. they have ever taken by surprise has been themselves. They were rurprised when Belgium fought; surprised when Serbia fought; they were surprised when Britain came in; they were surprised when Ireland did not prove traitor instead of Galway; they were surprised when India did not revolt; they were surprised when Can ada came to the front; they were surprised when Australia and New Zealand sent a big army to the trenches; they were surpris ed finally, to our humiliation, when we dared fight. "How have the Germans proved that they have surprised anybody about anything? Oh, you say, they went out with a big gun that could shoott seventy-two miles. I'll tell you now, that we have one that will shoot farther and better and shoot almost as accurately as one could with a pistol." 4* 4* 4- MUS!KCS 4* ByW.L.D. 4- 4 Knowledge Is power. We note in the joy column the announcement of the ringing of the marriage belts for: I^awrence Noser. Does he? A State street shop displays this patriotic sign: ALLIES SHOE SHOP Certainty is a bid for custom, if he is in the business when the boys re turn from running Fritz over the ithine. he probably will do a rushing business. Speaking of signs, a painter an nounces that he "signs anything." Don't beiieve Kaiser Biii could get' him to sign a peace petition. His death warrant? Oh. yes! Latest scientihc intelligence informs us that the aeroplanes have added a moving picture camera to their photo graphic outdt.

"Did you ever notice." asked Con' Kreet, how some peopie use a tele phonc as if it were a magaphone. and shout into the transmitter at the top of their voice?" "Yes," repiied Musings, "but it is i necessary to speak loudiy at times; it' depends somewhat on the surround ings. Perhaps there is so much: racket in the vicinity of the speaker.' he has to raise his voice to hear him self talk." Raise his voice." repeated Con. i "why don't he raise the window and save the wear and tear of the wire?j No two persons use a phone alike. have been taking notes down at the office where 1 am supposed to make good for a weekly consideration, and. It is both Interesting and amusing to} observe the different modes of pro cedure." "For instance—" suggested Musings.' on the iookout for information. 'Well." responded Con. "the noon hour is a good time to make observa idiots who cail for a number in a foice of duicet sweetness, caicuiated io charm 'Centra!' into swift action, tnd who, shouid the proper connection not be immediateiy Riven, commence !o jiggie the hook, and repeat 'Helio' so often that it sounds tike a profane stutter from an excited bai! fan "Those whose ears are fuil of the racket of the night before' and who shouid be under a shower bath instead of at their desk, usuaiiy register im patience with the person on the line, or endeavor to convey the impression that the instrument is out of order, and after faiiing to get a beam of in telligence through their befuddied brain, Siam the transmitter on the hook and possibiy break something. Say. if you have any sympathy at ali in that newspapered heart of yours, bestow it upon the operators at the Centra! station, who receive more ifi treatment and endure more unde served censure than any class of people on earth, not excepting poli ticians. who don't get half they de serve. "But as 1 intimated before, the noon hour is the time when the fond lover calis up his heart's desire' and makes a long-distance appeal that ptis inate backwardness or bashfulness Prevents his doing at ciose quarters. To see the careful glance around be fore he breathes the precious number to take note of eavesdroppers, and the anxious expectancy betrayed upon his countenance as he awaits the re sponse, is to recall memories of days long ere telephones could be the blessed medium of communication, and hoiiow trees and gate posts were the trysting place for sweet missives. The iover at a telephone is a study in ex pression. One can almost read the returns that come over the wire by watching the expression on tne face of the eager listener. The words he speaks are low- and earnest and so closely guarded as to be inaudible across the desk, hut the sparkle of his eye or the flush on his cheek tells the tale. It is a tale oft told and grows no older by repetition." Perhaps when East St. Louis is cleaned up. nothing but the odor of aanctity wiil be wafted to St. Louis on the eastern breeze.—Tom Terry in Star. Oh. Tom, how couid you?

A "tall spin" caused the fall in each of the accidents. Lieut. Lee C. Giddings, of Duluth, Minn., was instantly killed Thursday and his companion, Cadet Flier E. C. Darlington, of Washington, D.

To gain commissions, student fliers must perform certain "feats" and it was while attempting the "tail spin" that all of the accidents occurred. Weekly meetings of officers and ca dets are planned for the future, it now is understood, to discuss means of making aviation less hazardous during the training period. At the first meeting it was agreed that tail spins shall not be tried at an altitude of less than 2,000 feet, to allow the pilot time to right his plane In case the attempt does not turn out as intended. All of the accidents this year have resulted from attempts made less than 1,000 feet from the ground.

July 4th. 1918. Dear Folks: !t doesn't seem hardly like the Fourth of July today but ft is. f was just thinking that on the fast Fourth, Forrest and f were pfnvfng tennis. On the Fourth, Mi6, I was out in the harvest fields of Okiahoma pitching wheat on a wagon, I've been some busy since leaving Boston. Lots to do. W* made one fourday trip from the port and then went out again for day. the next day after we came in. Since then, we have been laid up re pairing—a sub is aiways out of whack. Yesterday 1 finish'd getting the ship's log up to date and then went ttshoi'e First time* ashore here this t.me Had a lot of things to buy. put h as overalls, socks, shoestrings. etc, etc It's easier to go and buy them than to go through the red tape and get them vj^ gov't. Well you ought to have seen our bunch about til" second day out on, our four-day cruise. There weren't j many who weren't seasick. They were ell "fluffing" as they say.

One fellow nearly got washed j pway So it was rough and prty' tenge 1. Then we got into a fog and lost our course and so anchored peer night. Kcxt mon^ng. it was r ill fogs.-, but we found our way. Tot tout in another fog and were tost for three or four hours. One day. w ran submerged for over ten hours j funning on motors. One time we v ent down ltMi feet deep and several. t mes to 60 feet. One day we went to the bottom, about 60 feet and lay there and ate our dinner on the hot tom of the ocean Believe me. we didn't get any too much sleep on that f-i-irse. WSiiie running on the sur fate. we have to have some one on duty continuousiy on the radio. As thci-e are oniy two of us we have long w atches. Then while Tunning awash, j ^1 iere are two other devices to be on continuously and as there are but the two of us. we each stand steady watch .while awash The wireless ts not rsed to amount to anything then, as it is u ually down w hen awash or) P.ibmerged But the two devices are enough When we are submerged, thcc are three devices we two have to s. <nd continuous watch on. so you pee we are some busy couple. The oily chance to sleep is while on the purface. Running awash means to be running on surface, partly submerged, 6ith the tanks having just enough water in them to cause the boat to jest hareiy remain afloat. Then we c n. by use of the fin like rudders, dive any time we fee! like it without any t*ou! ie.

The plans under which the campaign is being conducted make it 'imperative that each member of the Chamber secure at ieast one other member and have aii petitions ready to die on or before July 20. it is believed the campaign wiii be more than successful. That the Chamber has been of in* estimabie value to the city and to its members is apparent, and becoming more so every day. The close of the fight to abolish the coai rate between this city and St. Louis with the pros pects for a favorabie decision marks the body as aggressive and as hav ing creditably contended with the strongest body of its kind in the Middie West. The personnel of the Chamber of Commerce, with its effi cient officers places it in position to assist any business or member to a great degree with any problems which may confront it. In a series of letters sent out by Mr. Dray, al! vantage {mints of hoid ing memberships fre expiained and membership increase is urged.

Camp Logan. Tex.. Juiy 8. 1918. City Editor Laity Jourant: t am writing to you to have you change my address. Our regiment putted out of Camp Shetbv. Miss., tast Tuesday, and we have estabiished our seives here. We now are not onty at Camp Logan, but are occupying the very same site on which the East St. Louts boys of the 124th Field Artittery regi ment were encamped up untit sixi weeks ago. As a native East St. Louisan, t have been more than proud since coming here to team that of ait the soidiers who have been quartered here during the last year, none were heid in as high esteem as the 124th F. A. voiun teers from East St. Louis. The peopie of Houston—and there were many of them who became acquainted with the 124th tads—certainty regretted the de parture of the regiment. There are a few East St. Louis tads stilt in the base hospital here, i vis ited them the other evening. They wit' soon rejoin their regiment. From them t [earned I couid get hold of The Joumai at the Knights of Coiumbus hut. t went there, and. sure enough, found several recent copies of the East St. Louis daily on hie. Anyone who is on the road in the army nowadays cannot receive his favorite papers regularly, so t was giad to run into the tile. About the oniy reason t can advance for our coming to Texas, instead of going straight to Europe, is the acute Mexican situation. Affairs on the bor der have recently been reported to be critical. Frankty, the movement of troops in the United States has become so great that no regiment knows what is to become of it, or its destination. We may be here for months. or for week* —and maybe only for a few days. 1 think we wili hate at least two more years of warfare. We have al ready ticked Germany, but it wiil take another year or so to crush iter. Uncle Sant, however, is not operating his war machinery with a stop-clock, but is preparing, or, rather, is pre pared for many more years of con fiict. Aeroplanes are as common as Fords here. Ellington Field Is located not far from Camp latgan. and the Curtiss biplanes are soaring above us at all hours of the day. There are many Hew Yorkers in our regiment, and gioom was cast through out the camp yesterday at the news of the death of Major John Purroy Mitchei. He was an idol in Texas. It might be said that the ex mayor of Hew York was more popular here than he was in Gotham, and New York never had a more idolized mayor than Mitchei. There Is another East St. Louisan in the 4th Fieid Artiiiery who is mak ing good in the army. He is Fred Kurrus, a brother of Frank and Charies Kurruft, the undertakers. He now is supply sergeant of Battery E. Gilbert Janssen, formerly a clerk at one of the Stock Yards packing houses, has aiso been shipped to our regiment as a recruit. Our regiment has a very unique dis tinction, in that it has not got one draftee in its ranks. We are a!i vol unteers. Many other regiments of the regular army have been Clled up with selective men, but not the 4th Fieid Artiiiery. Sincerely, CORPORAL ROY L. ALBERTSON. 4th Field Artiiiery, Camp l^ogan, Tex.

A hearing of the labor difficulties which beset the employes of the East St. Louis Suburban Railway was held in the Federal building m St. Louis yesterday, continuing almost all day. The question before the division of examiners for the U. S. War Board designated to deal with the East St. Louis matter was of wages only and is the result of a petition Hied with the Board following the compromise with company officials which termin ated the strike of one day. The Su burban employes asked for higher wages and when told by the company that additional revenue must come be fore wages could be raised, they de clared a strike and walked out. The matter w as referred to the War Board through the efforts of the Chamber cf Commerce, Maurice V. Joyce act ing as intermediary. The commission in St. Louis con sisted of Messrs. Raymond Swing, Edward hfewdick and A. Winner. Winner said yesterday that his di vision of tha.commission were in St. Louis toshA* two controversies; that of Eatt\gW ijibuis and that of the Ga!esb!Hg;ptM*t Railway. In the at which testimony of locah-'gpfptoyes was called for, M. H. Grant, president of the Gran ite City'a&tot car men was the prin cipal witHeMf. He told qf the danger ous work the men most contend with and "wdmfH doing it every day for 33c to 3Reqmr honr." he aaid. Grant cited the wdeknce in the cost of living, saying d&h^Hat rentals had gone up from tf& for the same piece of property w&hin the last three years. Ho aaid that ninety per cent of the men employed by the car company are married and. most of them ki!ve chiidren. The men are asking in creases up to 60c per hour. Other witnesses testified as to the service. It was stated that the su burban cars of the company were, some of them, operated at a speed of seventy miies per hour at times in spite of the fact that the system has 21 dangerous grade crossings. !&ost of these crossings, it was said, are between East St. Louis and Coiiins viiie. Granite City and Aiton. Evidence given to the examiners wiii be presented to the U. S. War Board of which W. H. Taft is chair man.

MoAe A Faster For 71he Boys Af 71he Front The Salvation Army asks nothing for itself. It asks you to aid the Saivation Army in order to aid others. You, in that way, put yourseif "over there" in the thick of it, where this army seeks to save and serve in the hour of need. ILLINOIS COUNCIL OF DEFENSE. The Saivation Army is one of the Government approved organ izations that works on behaif of our soidiers and sailors in this country and abroad. Not a dollar of this fund wiii be used for any other purpose than war work for the soidiers. The particular purposes for which The Saivation Army now appcais is for the erection and maintenance of huts for the soidiers in France and at camps in'this country; for ambuiance work; for hoteis; for the accommodation of soidiers on ieave and en route to t.he front, and for emergency service. This work is modeied on that of The Sai vation Army on European and Asiatic battie fronts, where there have been 850 Salvationists since the outbreak of the war.—(Sam uel Insuii, Chairman.) Don Martin, writing for thq Cincin BAti Enquirer, says: "The courage of these giris, young And attractive, is unbounded. They Are ready at aii times to take any chance the eoidiers take. They put op with hardships in the matter of living which would completely dis courage the average person, and yet they are aiways smiiing. They put a good deal of sunshine into lives which would otherwise he rather des oiate, and are performing their task with no expectation of reward except the knowledge that they have done what they feit was right. "It is no wonder that the men in the American army—officers as weii as privates—tip their hats to The Salvation Army. The entire United States would do so If it couid see just what the workers in this llttie religious band are doing to make life easier for the boys who are ilghting tor the cause of civilization." Governor of Illinois says: "The Saivation Army is particularly equipped for this kind of service. have watched the career of this or ganization for many years and know its leaders to be devoted and capable men and women. I hope It will be able to extend its work In France. I notice that the President and the Secretary of War have en dorsed the movement. Of course, any agency which can in any way amei lorate the condition of the boys at the front shouid receive encourage ment."

Surgeon General of the Red Cross, who was to have addressed the members of the Fort Sheridan Association at a meeting yesterday in the Congress Hotel, was called suddenly back to France and his pace was Hlled by Major Rucker, one of the chiefs ot the sanitary service, who gave a vivid and encouraging narrative to the 200 mothers, sisters and wives of Fort Sheridan men who were present. Every step of the way he took them, from the time when the men go into quarantine before sailing to the front line trenches and back of them, where I the men are met by The Salvation Army girls with howls of hot soup Maj. Rucker couid not say enough good things about The Salvation Army work in France, nor about that of Miss Eisie Janis, who, he de clared. was doing the biggest piece of work for the benefit of the soidiers of jany one woman over there with her jokes and songs. What the Major had to say about the 'sanitary conditions in the Army was decidedly encouraging. "In spite of jthe necessary crowding bf the ships which carry the soidiers across not one case of iiiness was discovered which could be attributed to the ship," he said, "and the morbidity and mortality rates In the American Army are the lowest of any army in the his tory of the worid."

WHEN !N NEED OF JOB WORK TRY THE Dai!y Journai Job Office DEATH AND DtSEASE SWEEP A(JSTMA (The following Is a stenographic re port of a speech delivered recently before a Socialist audience at Zurich, i Switzerland, by John Alexander, an Austrian Socialist.* For two hours and a quarter he appalled his audience! as he recited for the first time the! grim tragedies that are being enacted by the war in the Dual Monarchy which he terms the "Rotten Empire.") BY JOHANN ALEXANDER. Before the war foreigners called our country the "Ramshackle Em i pire." During the first year of the war it deserved to be called the "Skeleton Empire." But now all thinking Aus trians admit that we are a "Rotten Empire." Visit today any city, town or ham let in the Dual Monarchy and you will agree with me that it is a land of starving people. And the lack of food is not the only vicissitude of the people. The people are starving for every thing—food, clothing and all necessi ties. Luxuries are only enjoyed by the very rich. Corruption is the law and despera tion has become the religion of all. Vicea of Ultra Rich. A people divided against itself, the vicious vices of the ultra rich, the un speakable destitution and horrible sufferings of the working classes; the natural jealousies of different nation alities of the numerically inferior but politicially superior Austrians and j Hungarians, and, to top it all, the I despicable imbecility of the so-called I "Vienna royalty;" these and other in ternal dissensions would have been enough to cause ultimate collapse of such a ramshackle empire as ours even in the days of peace. But in times of war, under the con stant intrigues and chicaneries of the German elements our land has become a land of lost hopes and the peoples I in a vassalage. Do not misunderstand me. Let me be candid, ana* even brutally frank. I have not left our "rotten empire" and taken refuge in this land of refugees —as well as the land of the nastiest intrigues—for the purpose of inviting the pity and sympathy of the world to the country which I have left behind. Deserves No Sympathy. Our country deserves no sympathy from either neutral or enemy; even pity should be meted out to us with precaution. Speaking as a Socialist I declare j the socialism of Austria-Hungary is even more despicably guilty of the most horrible crime that a people as a whole is capable of perpetrating against a neighboring nation than our rulers themselves. It may not please my Stxdalist com rades throughout the world if I aay that we Socialists of Austria-Hun gary are a hundred times more sin ners against the laws of decency, let alone the "Internation," than the hated mitMle classes. We may not be as great sinners as our fellow Socialists of Germany, but since our ruler started in that most infamous murder and robber cam paign against our weak neighbor— Serbia—we have been horrible sin ners, or at best, cowards. Sulk Behind Cowardice. Nearly four years ago when the threatening war clouds gathered in the Balkan horizon the huge number of Social-Democrats of Austria-Hun gary sulked behind the impenetabie ramparts of cowardice and kept their unworthy voices silent. Not one word of humanitarian sympathy did they express for the weak vietim-Serbia—the littie neigh bor whose territory we were about to invade, whose manhood we were about to exterminate and whose women we were bound to sacrifice. "Oh! the campaign wiH iast no longer than a few weeks!" What depths of aouHess moral de pravity! !t would all end within a few months—then we would resume our meaningless talk of solidarity and internationalism! For that reason and only for that reason we sulked speechless end when the actual war became a fact we, the Social-Democrat# of Austria-Hungary and Germany, shouldered the bayon ets that were handed to us by our heretofore hated rulers end rushed to wer to ravage our. neighbor. The Cowardly SHeace. We even aeng end danced, swinging our rifles over our shameless heads. Not one word of protest. Not one word of indignation did we shout. "It will only last a few weeks!" That was the reason of our coward ly alienee. For that reason and only for that reason did we filng to the winds our principles of old. But the world knows too well what followed for me to repeat. Today we are raising our voices so loud that even our enemies are smiling. The louder we raise our voices at this late date the more cynical is the growing emile of contempt on the faces of our enemies and those who are not declared enemies, but who hate us as heartiiy and healthily. It !asted more than "just a few months," that is the true reason for our shoutings against our rulers. Were it possible that a united and aroused conscience of Austriaa-Hun garian Socialism couid speak to the worid today, it ought to shout from the housetops: "We"stand before you laden with shame and refuse to offer apoiogies in extenuation of our be trayal to the International" Heavy Retribution. Now let me describe to you the heavy retribution that our own be trayai of our principles has caused us to suffer and wiii make us suffer in definitely. During the current year the birth rate in Vienna district has been oniy 10 per cent of the year 1913. In Vienna the (Math rate this year has been 86 per cent per 1,000 of the tota! population. In this I am not in cluding the death of tne combatants. In Vienna district aione oniy 10 per cent of the children have been bom physicaliy norma], many being born without fingernails. Even then a very small percentage of the ehiidren born have survived the three months' limit. I have these statistics from a prominent medieai officer of the municipality of Vienna. You say OH! These are nothing. I have more to teil you. I have juat stated that children are being born without finger naits. Yes, ehiidren are being bom skinless. During the entire period when the unfortunate mother bears the child she is not fed with food that is nour ishing. Mothers Under-Nourished. Op the average the chiid-bearing mother does not receive each wees mow than half a kilogram (approxi mately h*!f a pound) of meat and fats combined. Naturally the majority of the babies are bom prematurely, for the mothers have not the strength to carry them for the required period. have seen no less than fifty babies In hospital wards in one district alone who were bom skinless. Others are bom "Unformed" and still others are eyeless. In municipalities those who are in charge of the machineries of the law impose upon the parents of these "un formed" babies the livig torture of forcing them to nurture such babies as best they can, but in rural and country districts the people are judg ing for themselves how to deal with such eases. In this connection let me narrate a ease in a Vienna criminal court where a young mother recently stood trial for murdering her "unformed" child. Strangled Her Child. She had no milk with which to feed the half living baby. She, therefore, strangled it. She had committed a crime. Had she not murdered her child? The trial continued two hours and in the end the judge considered him self compelled to sentence the young mother to two years' imprisonment. Just before pronouAcing sentence the judge asked her if she wished to make a statement. Thereupon the mother shouted these words to the court: 'It is not I who deserve sentence; it is our rulers who should be made to stand here, not not I!" That woman spoke out the thought that most of our people today would utteT had they the courage. War's Curse Everywhere. But the heavy curse of war does not end here. Like the air, it is everywhere. It is not only destroy ing the unborn; it is exterminating the aged and the near aged. Only the ultra rich are immune from the horrible calamities of the damnable war which our rulers so carefully and so callously and so bra zenfacedly designed and sprung on our weak neighbor—Serbia. The author of the plague has him self become a victim of his diabolical design. "The war would last only a few months!" But it lasted more than a few months, and we are caught ourselves in the very whirlpool which we cre ated for others. But are we repentant? Are we truly remorseful for the in describable crimes of our rulers? Still Cnrepentent. Are we ready to hang our heads before the world and confess shame facedly that we have been the great est betrayers of the 'International" and brought about this piague onto ourselves No! No! A thousand times no! Our cries are the cries of a whip ped dog. We would not have raised our voices had the war lasted "only a few weeks." We would not have protested against the murder and ra pine our troops carried Into Serbia. We would not have raised a finger against the horrible wrongs commit ted against the helpless population of Bosnia and Herzegovina. But the war lasted more than "only a few weeks," and we are cravenly shouting for peace, peace, peace that will spare our miserable necks.

The loss is estimated at $3,000,000. The ship laden with Petroleum, consigned to the Spanish Govern ment was lying o(f Staten Island, when (ire broke out. Her crew of 35 began leaping overboard when the decks became hot. An explosion fol lowed quickly, ripping open the super structure and permitting the haanes to spread. A second explosion fin ished the wreck. U. S. Patrol boats, tugs and (ire boats picked up the men who were swimming about the wreckage and 17 were injured so badly they were removed to hospitals.

Washington. D. C. East St. Louis Daiiy Journal. Dear Editor—The latest thing in Washington is messenger boys on wheeis! They aii whi: around on roiier skates and it's rather disturbing at first untii you become accustomed to their clatter and shouts. They en joy it hugeiy. The Girl Scouts, who have been working as messenger boys (excuse *the mixed genders), started the innovation lot wearing skates. I remember one evening on Pennsylvania avenue wnen I let three cars go by and was late to dinner be cause 1 stopped to watch a scrap be tween the "sexe6" in Western Union service. A Girl Scout on skates was chasing a messenger boy who had called her a "Western Union Flivver." As he hadn't as yet been issued wheels, she caught up with him once and pulled out a handful of his hair, but he basely tripped her and escaped. The last I saw of it he had run up the sjone steps of the War and Navy building where she couldn't follow. They were both sticking out their tongues and shouting unprintable things at each other, and if you dont think that is a feat, try it! Soon afterwards the messenger boys were all on skates, so don't kuow how their battles are waged now. The richest people in Washington today are the laundrymen. women too, and Chinamen—whew! how they rob you and how they maltreat your clothes. If you are clean, you're in rags! It's hard to choose which you'd rather be! I'm thinking seriously of sending my things to East St. Louis every week and let our black "Lizzie" wash them. Last week I aimost had to stay in bed. The Baltimore booze situation nearly wrecked our laundry. One aft ernoon the entire force of drivers felt an irrisistible alcoholic urge, and all quit work and went to Baltimore! I tried a few Chinese laundrymen but I always either lost the ticket or couldn't Hnd the right laundry. If those hard working celestials would only put their names and addresses on the tickets maybe I could locate their shops. "No tickee, no shirtee," is all "velly well" but what good is a "tickee" if you've entirely forgotten where the "tickee" came from! The newspapers, which, by the way, are wonderful here, are beginning to I estimate the number of government clerks in Washington. The way they estimate the number of soldiers in France. Well, were soldiers in our way! They say that Washington will have 100,000 government clerks by December 1st, which is a 200 per cent increase of pre-war days. They're comipg to the capital at a rate of 600 a week. The Civil gervice Commission has registered 5,000 new rooms for the in coming hordes, and they are begin ning the three buildings near the Union Station Plaza that will accom modate 3,000 women, so that shows that a lot of women can't phase our i "Uncle!" 1 was passing through Capitol Heights the other day and saw the service dag of 37 stars Hying on the school house—the only service Hag in the country that has a star on it, for a woman. And I met the woman, too, Mrs. Jessie Deeble. This star is a different star in more ways than one. It is not for military service but for service of twelve years' standing, giv en for betterment of the town that she "founded." Twelve years ago she and her children lived in a woodshed in the Maryland country, and began a little farm. Families drifted out, building houses and planting vegetable gar dens. That was the beginning of Cap itol Heights, now an incorporated town of the state, with a bank, school, church and a newspaper. Mrs. Deeble is a yeowoman in the navy, but she is called the "Mother of the Town.' Her son is a yeoman in the navy and her daughter Is a yeowoman. like her self. They should have a family serv ice Hag! 1 feel like hanging out a service badge on myself, for 1 was promoted the other day on merit, and my salary raised beyond my most avaricious dreams. But what pleases me most is that Major C— of our division recom mended me for the promotion and the approved slip came back signed by Secretary of War Baker.. On merit! Ain't it a grand and glorious feeling! 1 wear my little bronze Ordnance pin most conspicuously. The insignia is a bursting bomb, you know—very Htting. for 1 was ready to burst with pride at that "On Merit!" t Wouldn't you? A GOVERNMENT GIRL. —-————v Ropiequet Expect* Decision in Favor of the East Side (Continued from Page One.) materially injured if the so-called ar bitrary were removed. One of the interesting features of the hearing was the calling to the stand by the East Side of V. Bunn, general secretary of the St. Louis Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Bunn is the author of numerous articles bit terly attacking and abusing East St. Louis. This action was rather a sur prise to the St. Louis representatives who had not called the gentlemen as their own witness. Attorney Ropiequet had Bunn iden tify a pamphlet entitled "The John son Plan to Abolish the Arbitrary." which was introduced into the evi dence as an exhibit in the case. This pamphlet referred to East St. Louis as a "clinging vine" and a "bloody is land." On another page it declared this city to be a "satellite" of St. Louis and referred to "the kiddies who hog the blanket." There were other vituperative phrases and ytis representations of facts, particularly with reference to the actiod of East St. Louis with regard to "heatless Mondays." Bunn was forced to admit that the statements in reference both to the facts and law which he said support ed the St. Louis view were all based upon statements made to him by other parties, and' that he really knew noth ing of the situation itself. He also admitted that the proceedings were initiated and Governor Folk as coun sel was secured personally by Jackson Johnson, president of the St* LoUTs Chamber of Commerce, and that his action afterwards was approved by the Chamber of Commerce. It was admitted during the testi mony that the manufacturers of St. Louis have their own association not affiliated with the Chamber of Com merce, and although the theory ad vanced by St. Louia was that they were injured by the arbitrary, still their organization was not a party to the case and was not of record in any of the proceedings. Mr. Bunn was not able to state whether the commercial interests of St. Louis favored the re moval of the arbitrary or not, but said that he assumed that they did. It may be of interest to the East St Louis people who patronize St. Louis stores and industries that according to this witness the business men ol St. Louis may be presumed to have approved his course in bitterly attack ing and vituperatively criticizing East St. Louis. An attempt by Bunn to criticize the police protection in East St. Louis was quickly stopped when Attorney Ropiequet caiied his attention to the looting in broad daylight of Washing ton avenue business houses and to the numerous and continuous payroll hold ups in St. Louis The witness was also reminded of the fact that the St Louis newspapers had repeatediy at tacked the Police Commissioners and demanded their removal because o< the era of crime prevailing in tha city. A significant admission by the St Louis secretary was that East St Louis enjoyed a "natural" advantage in being located closer than St. Louis to the coal fields. Other witnesses for St. Louis had carefully refrained from making this admission and some had even attempted to distort the map to prove that St. Louis was actually clos er by rail to the mines than the East Side. An interesting bit of testimony was given by F. A. Tissier, secretary of the Retail Merchants' Association of East St. Louis, who stated that East St. Louis contributed over (50,000.000.00 annually to the 8t. Louis wholesale and retail interests. The witness also stated that he frequently came in con tact with wholesale merchants of St. Louis and that they had told him that the present bridge arbitrary fight was mereiy propaganda on the part of the Chamber of Commerce and did not have their sympathy. No attempt was made to cross-examine Tissier on this point. Ropiequet asked Foik why he did not introduce any St. Louis mer chants as witnesses, but no reply was received and none took the stand. K. E. Nulsen. president of Missouri Malleable Iron Company, testiHed one of the principal reasons his plant had located on the East Side was cheaper coal. He stated that he thought the bridge arbitrary charge proper, al though he was compelied to pay high er prices on raw materiais from the west side than his competitors in St. Louis. The removai of the arbitrary would be a serious injury to his busi ness, the witness stated. George S. Mepham, president of the George S. Mepham Paint Company, j testified that cheaper and more acces sible coal had largely inHuenced his plant in locating on the east side. REV.

"What the War Moves Mean" Written by J. W. T. MASON United Pret* W*r Expert New York, July 13.—Germany's an ticipated peace offensive has been ciumsiiy begun by Chanceiior von Hertiing. His purpose is to throw the initiative for making detailed offers for ending the war upon the allies, hoping thus to bury the principal allied demand that German miiitarism be crushed before a peace treaty can be sighed. Von Hertiing interprets America's resolve that the German militarists be made impotent as meaning America is determined upon the destruction of Germany. This is a characteristic deceptive effort of German statesman ship. Von Hertiing is seeking to fooi the German people into consenting to further biood sacrifices for the Hohen zoiiem megalomaniacs, who demand that the worid shall bow to the di vine right of kings. The last hope of the kaiser to con tinue the destruction.of German man hood is that his subjects wili fail to differentiate between the overthrow of Germany's war lords and the over throw of Germany as a sovereign^ state. Von Hertiing has now been set to work to confuse the Germans over this issue and to clear the grot^pd for new German cemeteries. It is difficult to believe the German peopie can be iong deceived by the despair ing effort of the kaiser to affix the seidsh ambitions of his biood stained royal house upon Germany's future. If he succeeds in doing this Germany will have no future. Von Hertling's camouflage means the kaiser's diplo mats are now retiring to defensive po sitions. They are begging the cruelly maltreated German people to save their own taskmasters from the pun ishment which an outraged world is preparing to inflict. Nothing, however, can prevent that punishment. America's wonderful progress in war preparations is a guar antee that retribution shall be ex acted before civilization is itself crushed in the process. The hope of the miiitarists has vanished that their own downfall could only be accom plished by the exhaustion of the dem ocratic nations. America has rescued the world from the possibility of that catastrophe. When the German peo-; pie realize this fact peace and the death of German militarism will not be far distant. WALSH HAS HEW ATH/FF/HG CLASS Five Firemen cf Fen^A anJ FrenJ/ey Doiny Ei^ /or Army LoJs. "Knit two, purl two!" This sort of language is being heard at all hours of the day at the engine house at Tenth and Trendiey avenue, where five firemen have learned to knit. Under the direction of Fireman Walsh, who recently gained some prominence by being the only man in the Father Hynes knitting club started by St. Mary's church, they have knitted a number of sweaters. Walsh says it is the flnpst pastime he has found, and though the men had a hopeless tangle of yarn all over the engine house when he began his lessons, they have become quite ef ficient in the art. He has invented a curious hold, putting corks on the ends of his needles and tucking them under his arms—"out of his way," he says. Firemen at other stations in the city I are interested in the idea and asking for teachers.

The "Coffee King" and the "Tea King" of the World are at Your Service Sir Thomas Lipfon and a Consignment of His Tea Being Sent Down a Hirer in Ceyion, Where He Owns Many Tiantations. Ten to One, When You Sip Your Breakfast Coffee Or Dinner Tea You Are Paying One of These Men for the Privilege of Indulging In Your Favorite Brand. IR Thomas Lipton has often said himself that he has more money than he needs, but he has never confided to the public the exact amount of his fortune. Conservative Estimates place it at about $25,000,000. It may be even more, but it can hardly be less. The corporation of which he is the head has about 500 stores in various parts of the United Kingdom and has on its payroll 10.0Q0 men and women. Sir Thomas owns more land in the tropical island of Ceylon than any otlyr one individual; he has packing houses in Ireland and Chicago and a great depot at Malta which furnishes supplies to die British army and navy. Shortly before the birth of the fa mous tea merchant. Sir Thomas' pa rents moved from Ireland to Glasgow. There as a boy he used to sail a cat boat on the Clyde, the most enthusiastic yachtsman among his fellows, but as unlikely a challenger for the America's cup as could be discovered, for it was only with the greatest self-denial that he could scrape together enough pennies to hire a boat for an hour. At the age of 15 he stowed himself on board an Amer ican bound steamer and reached New York penniless. The difference between those days and these reminds us of the transformation of Dick Whittington in to the Lord Mayor of London. The Civil war had just ended and times were hard. Somehow he managed to reach South Carolina and worked there for two years on a plantation. His wages were pitifully small, but he sent hack half of them each month to his parents He worked his way to New York,'work ed there until he had saved $500 and re turned to Glasgow. With this modest sum of money he started his career as a mercliant by to six times the amonnt for sale. Advertising his been largely responsi ble for the Lipton fortune. He has al ways realized that he eould never build up a great business without making his name known far and wide. In the early days, before he could afford to ad vertise in newspapers, magazines and oa billboards, he had two fat hogs driven through the streets of Glasgow, placard ed "Upton's Orphans." That was in the days when bacon was his leading com modity. Later, when a steamer on which he was a passenger, wtts disabled in the Red Sea, and the cargo had to he thrown overboard, he bonght a paint hrusj* and a pot of Mack paint from the stewt d and inscribed on every box and bale that went into the water, "Use Lip ton's Teas So popuiar a breakfast drink has cof fee become in almost every country of the world that it has been predicted that in 1915 the demand will be greater than the supply. Put Francisco Schmidt of Sao Paulo, Brazil, will presumably not be one of the persons condemned to go without ltis morning cup for he owns 35 plantations, with 3.000 acres devoted solely to the production of coffee. He owns more coffee plants than anyone else in the worid. lust how many coffee plants grow on the Fazenda Schmidt is a matter for conjecture. Some people who have visited the plantation say that there are about 4,000,000; other estimates run as high as 11,000,000. ft is certain, however, that Schmidt's plantations pro duce over 100,000 sacks annually, each sack containing 130 pounds. His year ly gross income from this crop is over $1,000,000. Pew people realize what an enormous per cent of the world's coffee comes from Brazil.

Government War Insurance TT* T is important th t every soldier and sa.!or and every family that has contributed a member to the military or nava! service of the United States should know that the right to ap ply tor war insurance is limited as to time. Government insurance, which may be obtained in sums from $1,000 to $10,000, is offered at a price extraordinarily low. The cheapness of the insurance has been attained by selling it at cost—possibly below cost. There will be no profits, i he unprecedented advantages and privileges of acquiring life insurance at ct t during a time of hazard are given freely, even urged upon the soldiers and saviors. The mere recital that a $10,000 policy may be purchased by a soldier or sailor 23 years old for $6.50 a month tells a sufficient story to any one who has had experience with life insurance cost. It can not be emphasized too strongly that the families of soldiers and sailors of the United States owe a duty not only to themselves hut to their boys in service to urge them to apply before it is too late. The policies cover disability. The soldier or sailor who returns with total and permanent physical impairment will have no financial dread of the future if he has a Government insurance policy, while for those who are near to him the policy is a benehcent safeguard against future want. -0 The botanical name of the tiny oval kumquat or dwarf orange is TortuneHa margarita.
